Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated whether human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived dendritic cells (hiPSDCs) pulsed with cocktail peptide (KIF 20 A, MUC 16, Mesothelin, VEGFR 1, R 2) could induce pancreatic cancer cell-specific cytotoxic T cells in a preclinical model using pancreatic cancer patients. The surface marker expression, cytokine secretion and migratory capacity of the hiPSDCs were equivalent between pancreatic cancer patients and healthy volunteers. Cytotoxic T cells activated by cocktail peptide pulsed hiPSDCs exhibited pancreatic cancer cells-specific cytotoxic activity against the target cells. This was the first study to show an antitumor effect on pancreatic cancer cells by vaccination with iPSDCs. This innovative cocktail peptide pulsed hiPSDCs is a promising tool for clinical applications of vaccine therapy for treating pancreatic cancer patients.
